Have you noticed more crime in your area?

Been reading a lot of walk in bank robberies and scrap metal thefts near me. My two favorites are a guy who pulls into a municipal yard and loaded a bunch of sewer grates into his Ford Explorer like he worked there, and a dude who got caught while trying to get a 55 gallon drum of copper scrap over a 12 foot chain link fence.

we had some metal thefts around but not that much really

Omaha gangs seems to want to make a name for themselves...lots of gunfire almost nightly in certain areas.

Also a big SWAT and FBI gun and drug sting. Would have been fun to watch as they had something like a dozen vehicles and 100 officers bust in many houses. Numerous guns and drugs seized . Good start

I used to notice a lot more salable trash on nightly walk through neighborhood being put out. Now it is pretty much picked clean. I've counted at least 3 different "regulars" in cars who scourge the area for stuff. They look desperate. Tough times for everyone i guess.

At our state fair, hundreds of black people waited outside and beat the shit out of any white person in sight. The youngest victim was 4 years old... shit was bonkers.
